7/15/26 - Sparkle Challenge #202 (Kids) / The Creative Crafter #102 (ATG) - Splash & Relax

Summer is here and I created this kid friendly card at Sparkle along with The Creative Crafter (ATG) for Fun in the Sun card! This is an online exclusive bundle called Splash & Relax and it's perfect for the summer! It has lots of summer related images and I made a card with Pool Tube and Beach Balls! There are 2 stamp/layering images for both tube and the balls so you can stamp the lighter color first and then darker colors for the details. This is perfect for a kid who has a birthday with a pool theme! I hope this card will inspire you to join us at the challenge.

Happy Monday! Hope everyone had a great 4^th of July weekend! Today at Atlantic Hearts Sketch, instead of a slimline card, I made it into a regular size A2 card for it. The 3 square are die cut out with the coordinating paper (or DSP we called it at Stampin' Up) and I used the same suite bundle to die cut out a fern like image and added a sentiment. Hope you enjoyed this creation and join us at the challenge.

7/6/26 - A Place to Start July 2026 (Anything Goes, Optional Twist Black/White) - Fern & Flora Bundle

Hope everyone had a great 4^th of July celebration, now back to the grind! Today at A Place to Start with Anything Goes - twist to have Black/White. I saw a similar card and decided to CAS (Copy and Share) with my twist. I paired it with the light pattern paper of Fern and Flora and use the die cut out of the fern as the main focal point. I used a smaller sentiment and added some sequins on the top. I hope this card will give you some inspiration to join us at the challenge,
